I am trying to place and size a window on Mac using XOJO as my coding app. I am NOT in Terminal. Needs to be run as a shell I guess, but I don't know how to get the variable or set the variable.
Here is a line of code that opens a folder:
Code:
Dim sh As New Shell()
sh.Execute("open /Users/shawn/Desktop/ATP")
how do I get the xdotool to place a size the active window.
The window id for the particular popup window is different each time, so this scripts often does not work.
Is there a way I could use a wildcard ?
Ex. xdotool key --window 1677*.* alt+F4
or go through all the relevant window IDs and filter what I need and discard the rest.
